So we are out of the CL now? And Ten Hag has been sacked?

It was tongue in cheek, but seriously though. You shouldn’t have signed him then, if you were gonna sign a hundred other midfielders after that. Sounds like Santos was just an insurance policy just in case you missed out on your midfield targets. I expected a club who took on a young lad on loan to actually use him a bit. This helps no one. Don’t know how you convinced Chelsea to send him to you when he had loan offers from Porto, Monaco etc. Disastrous loan so far. Waste of time.Oh no not a blacklist. Do you really expect him to get in the side ahead of Domingez or Sangare? By all means recall him and he can rot on your bench instead.
Attitude from Forest fans, deary me.
Sitting in 13th has gone to their heads.

I'm just saying it's a bit more likely to happen than Man. United flying up the league as things stand. Still a chance of CL qualification with Gala still having play to play Munich twice.
As a long term fan surely you can see the window is blowing hard against ETH in same way it was v Mourinho and OGS in their final few months and results are roughly on a par with those seasons if not worse.
I'd be surprised if he's still your manager in three months time.
Just saying and trying to rub it in perhaps?
Things aren’t great at the moment but having one fit full back at the club and missing your two first choice centre halves doesn’t help matters either.
Its funny that being 3 points behind you, brighton and level on points with newcastle is seen as a sacking offence. Think its much more likely hes still in the job and we've overtaken you in 3 months.
Cooper addressed the issue in the pre-palace presser. He got 90m Vs Burnley in the cup (we lost and he wasn’t great). He was ineligible when we beat you and would have got minutes Vs Brentford but Niakhate got sent off. It would help if his agent wasn’t stirring shit up on line. The last player who caused problems is now playing in Turkey 6 months after signing.
How did Basham's leg snap like that yesterday? I only saw one vid of it and it's not something you want to rewatch, but there seemed to be no contact with the other player. Did it really snap just cos his full weight was on it when he tried to kick the ball?
No manager is getting sacked for winning 3 out of the last 5 during an injury crisis.
It’s nothing like Jose at all no matter how many times you say it
Saw the highlights of Everton v Bournemouth on MOTD. Good performance from Everton but Bournemouth looked absolutely diabolical.
Hard to see Iraola surviving, especially if they lose to Wolves in their next game. Would be ironic if losing to Gary O'Neil got Iraola the sack!

I would hope so with the money you’ve spent but just to temper your expectations a little bit we were without Ward, our first choice midfield pairing (Doucoure and Lerma), three of our attacking four (Eze, Olise and Franca) and Edouard is not fit having just got back from a hamstring injury.
I said this after our game against Utd, it’d be silly to judge your current level against this Palace side. Anyone who goes 1 up against us is going to win the game until we can get some creative/attacking players fit.
Is Olise back soon? What about the Brazil guy you signed for about 20m, not sure if he's even been in a squad yet so guess you're allowing time for him to settle in.
Olise had a setback so there’s a bit of talk about mid November, Eze probably longer. We picked up an issue with Franca’s back during his medical but he’s started training and should be in contention for the squad after the international break.
Roy was never the sexy appointment but to have 12 points on the board with the injuries we’ve got is quite an achievement I think, a lot of us felt we were two attacking players light even before the injuries.
What odds for 4 away wins today?
What odds on Brigton getting shafted by the ref or VAR (which will also see not a dickie bird being said by the media)
That's obviously going to happen. Mission accomplished for Klopp and the Pool media
The BBC has Solly March playing at left back. Is that correct?
They were last year multiple times. So at least they'll be used to it. Also v Spurs in one game iirc. Robbed in 4 games total I think.
Don't recall a similar outcry. What a surprise.
Carlos Noom Quomah Baleba starting for Brighton.
Big game for the 19 year old.

You don't care, you just wanted to type his name out.
Shade over 20/1. Not too bad though I hope we are finally due against City today.
I am sure this has been asked before but why not have one match at 1200 and two at 1400 rather than having all three at 1400. Surely they make more money spreading it out.
GuiltyYou don't care, you just wanted to type his name out.
Had to check the spelling a few times.
No natural defensive midfielder in that Liverpool side today. I feel if that was us, we'd get torn apart. Not an exact science, but something like Bruno, Mount/Eriksen and Hannibal would be our equivalent. Remains to be seen how they get on.
Travelling to a 12pm kick off on a sunday is massive a ball ache.
Questionable set up by Brighton.
March at left back.
Igor’s first start.
Verbruggen in nets.
Baleba starting.

Where is Lamptey?
Fair enough.
It’s like they’ve given up before a ball is kicked. Yet the cnuts always go all guns blazing against us.
Even as angry as I am with the performances / results, Mourinho and Solskjaer weren't navigating through an injury crisis like this. Apart from Dalot, which is arguable, we've been without our first choice defence most of the season. This season would also probably have shaped up very differently had we got the penalty we should've against Spurs or Garancho wasn't offside by a millimetre against Arsenal. I expect the board will be looking at the context of the whole season and mitigating factors will work in his favour, not to mention there's almost no one worth taking on the market. United aren't sacking him for someone like Loputegui who himself has just been sacked by Wolves.
Liverpool are going to absolutely breeze through this game.
Brighton got to score
Come on Brighton!
Liverpool getting decisions their way already
No surprise. Wouldn't be surprised if Salah get penalty on dive.
They'll not give a stonewall red today.
Pope made a big mistake and WHU score.
Pope obviously getting his goalkeeper instruction from Onana.
West Ham lead Newcastle.
